LONDON, Sept 9 (Reuters) - Barclays on Monday said
it expects to increase its provision for payment protection
insurance (PPI) claims by 1.2 billion to 1.6 billion pounds
($1.5 billion to $2 billion).
Banks are setting aside more provisions for PPI following a
rush of claims against mis-selling of the insurance ahead of the
deadline on Aug. 29.
